About this Episode

Hey all, I'm Bill, I love to talk about video games. I've been playing games since my mother used to take me to visit my grandmother at the bar she worked at (I know) and there was a Donkey Kong game there. From minute one I was hooked. I talk about all types of games, from retro classics to brand new hotness. I'm happy you decided to come by,Each week I take a deep dive into my favorite stories about Nintendo, from the latest indie release to rumors about Smash. If you're looking for Nintendo news look no farther. I try to wrap up the news three times a week in a show that I try to keep under 30 minutes.

Pokemon Let's Go - runjumpstomp@gmail.com - Gmail — Holy crap! I didn't expect that announcement so soon, or for this to look so amazing! Having grown up with the first generation of pokemon, I've been waiting for an updated game focusing on the Kanto region. All of the mechanics of this game look to be very well utilized, and the games look gorgeous. Nintendo sure knows how to take all of my money. I can't wait for this release!

FIFA 19: We're not 'closing the door' on Frostbite for Nintendo Switch, reveals EA Sports — FIFA 19 will instead run on a ‘custom engine’ built for specifically Nintendo’s hardware. But gamers can still expect a noticeable boost.
“The intent was never to have a one-off custom engine that were never going to touch again,”Lazarescu explained.
“It was to have that as a baseline and then build from there.”
Lazarescu revealed some of the advancements are already starting to trickle through in the World Cup mode.

Hi Bill!
I like your show. You recently asked why Nintendo might be focusing efforts on creating Miis online.
My theory is that Mii Fighters will return in Smash 5 and Nintendo wants fans to be able to use their custom Miis to import into the game to customize a Mii Fighter.
